A new study shows that name brand sunglasses will give your eyes the best protection. A Roanoke VA news website did a study of really cheap ($1.00) sunglasses and popular name brand sunglasses.
The name brands came out on top almost everytime but surprisingly, there was a dollar pair that gave pretty good UV protection-no light was let in! For a buck! Not bad Dollar Tree and 99 Cent Store!
The Optician they interviewed promotes Polarized sunglasses as the overall best for filtering glare and absorbing most U-V-A and U-V-B light.
So the next time you forget your sunglasses and run into the discount store to buy some cheap shades-chances are they’re not going to block many damaging rays. So buy one of their cheap hats too!
Sunglasses study here at WDBJ7.
